Meet Wilbur



Wilbur is my 6 month old English Bulldog!  He was born on the 4th of July!  He is AKC registered.

I took him to the vet this morning due to his extreme watery eyes, foul smelling skin folds in face and over-all follow up.

I trimmed his nails on my own yesterday and saved myself 16 dollars!  They said I did a good job and I will continue to clip his nails often.  The said his quik will get shorter the more often I trim his nails!  He has a long quik right now!

I was given two new prescriptions for his face and general itching/discomfort.  The first is a Tri-optic ointment to medicate his skin folds and prevent yeast growth.  This is obviously good for his ears too.

The other prescription is a long lasting one called Atopica which he will take most of his life to help calm his immune system and cause him not to "be allergic to himself."

I am also starting him on science diet Puppy dog food today to see how his skin is over the next 8 weeks!  Here we go!!!  Here's to a healthy English Bulldog!
